Upwood history
William the Conqueror ordered that a survey should be carried out across his kingdom to discover who owned which parts and what it was worth. The survey took place in 1086 and the results were recorded in what, since the 12th century, has become known as the Domesday Book. In 1086 there was just one manor at Upwood; the annual rent paid to the lord of the manor in 1066 had been £10.
